DESCRIPTION
The LM317 device is an adjustable three-terminal positive-voltage regulator capable of supplying 1.5A over a 1.25V to 37V output range.
It requires only two external resistors to set the output voltage. The device features a typical line regulation of 0.01% and typical load regulation of 0.1%. It includes current limiting, thermal overload protection, and safe operating area protection. Overload protection circuity remains fully functional even if the ADJ terminal is disconnected.
